Hygge (pronounced “heurgha”) is essentially the art of being cozy and enjoying life. It’s a big deal in Denmark, where they are regularly voted as one of the happiest countries and not coincidentally also burn more candles than any country in Europe. Lighting candles has been proven to improve your mood and when you light Keap Candles you are doing it in an environmentally sustainable and fantastic smelling way.

Made of coconut wax with a glass holder that can be easily repurposed as a cup or returned to Keap for re-use, these candles come in unique, soothing scents like Wood Cabin, Wild Figs, and Green Market. Each individual candle burns for 45 hours and they have sample packs available so you can find your perfect “Hygge” pairing.

Everyone has their favorite t-shirts that they just can’t seem to part with because they remind them of an event or a time in their life that they remember with a smile. I have several shirts that I can’t discard but also can’t wear because they would not make it out of the washing machine in one piece. This is where Project Repat tshirt quilts are the perfect option. They take your shirts that would otherwise end up in a landfill and crafts a beautiful tshirt quilt from them right here in the USA by designers, cutters, and sewers earning a fair and living wage. Creating less waste, more jobs, and preserving more memories.

Individually handmade by women in Nepal earning a fair wage, these Friendsheep wool dryer balls are 100% organic New Zealand wool (from ethical, cruelty free sheep cooperatives) that dry your clothes 15-30% faster and do it without any harmful chemicals.

Plus these have cute with little animals faces on them.
*Tip: Pair them with your favorite essential oil to make your clothes smell like a spring morning in the middle of a 3-day weekend.
